Service is a key theme in this year's Catholic Schools Week. We've incorporated this idea of service and helping others into our Five Days of Kindness Challenge. Each day students arrive at school with a new challenge. On Day 3, students were asked to help other students carry their bookbags. While a simple gesture, helping others can have a profound impact. Just look at all the smiles in this short recap video.
